The tropical montane cloud forest is the most diverse and threatened vegetation type in Mexico. In the last decade, the number of described Ascomycetes species has notably increased, reaching more than 1300 species. This study describes six new species based on their molecular and morphological characteristics. Our results suggest that Mexico has the highest number of described species in the Neotropics. However, many other Mexican lineages still need to be described.
热带山地云雾森林是墨西哥最多样化且受威胁最大的植被类型。在过去十年中,已描述的子囊菌物种数量显著增加,达到了1300多种。本研究基于分子和形态特征描述了六个新物种。我们的结果表明,墨西哥拥有新热带界中已描述物种数量最多的国家。然而,墨西哥的许多其他谱系仍有待描述。
